  • A hard part of parenthood is watching our kids shy away from experiences we know they would love. Everything from just talking to other kids to taking a new class or trying a sport. So how do we help them build confidence to say yes more often?I came across a really simple but powerful method to helping my daughter overcome some of that nervousness. It's given us a simple way to communicate and help work through those anxious feelings about trying something new. As you know, saying "but you'll love this" never really works out.... so give this self awareness conversation a try that then gives you a simple check in for every situation that unlocks their ability to say yes more often!

Whether it's just trying to manage all the regular daily tasks or you have extra projects and deadlines to meet, it's really helpful to have a plan and not just wing it.

I recently had to give myself a kick in the pants reminder to implement the strategies we talk about here on the podcast. And this super simple method is what has been allowing me to accomplish what I need to and feel good about how I spend my time. So here's your reminder on how to be more productive this week!

  • Once October hits it feels like time flies by to the end of the year and it gets filled with all the seasonal activities. The pressure begins to rise as you see all the fall and Christmas activities, crafts, food and decorations. You see all the things everyone is doing and inspiration images of all the possible ways to be the "Pinterest Mom". Then the guilt sets in as time goes by that you aren’t doing anything or enough of all the things. So how do we avoid getting overwhelmed by all the seasonal things we feel like we "should" be doing with our family? We get really intentional with our plans and use this 2 question method to find out what we want to say yes to and what we are going to skip. And spoiler alert, your plans might not include all those things you do every year... when's the last time you asked yourself if you really enjoy that activity right now or if it's just something you always do.... Let's be more intentional and actually enjoy this time of year!

  • Truth bomb - we're not designed to do everything by ourselves.

    You're marriage is a partnership where you work together for the desired outcome. If you don't define what that is, you end up in the default parent role doing everything and building resentment along the way. That is not the example we want to model for our kids in their future partnerships.

    But instead of just complaining about having to do everything, today we actually lay out a plan to get into a better collaboration with our spouse and family. Listen in for some key takeaways about:-the problem with scorekeeping-how to determine who does what task-the cultural shift that makes it hard to have these conversations-how to have the first conversation (it takes more than 1)-the two way street of feedback-proper exceptations of change and success-lots of tips on the journey to a more equitable partnership in managing the home

  • Non-negotiables have become a trendy topic and for good reason; they're really important. However, they tend to always be about creating those self care non-negotiables and we're missing the next step.

    So we're going to define what these are, how you know what your non-negotiables are and then who else we need to think about that may need them. The first step is self awareness which is a practice of noticing and it goes along way. It starts with you but it should go beyond yourself.

    We'll talk about how that works in today's quick episode and I believe afterwards you're going to be able to improve your relationship with your family and even your daily routines. This packs a punch!

  • One of the big transitions in life is going back to work after becoming a mom. This can easily feel overwhelming and chaotic. Thankfully, there's people like Jackie who can give us all the tips to make going back to work a smooth process.

    This step by step plan for going back to work includes:

    -what to think about before going back to work-the conversations you need to have and who to have them with when it comes to childcares and taking care of the home-how to manage your home once you go back to work-what to do in the days before you start your job (including what day of the week to start!)Meet Jackie Cook:

    I was working in the Netherlands throughout my first pregnancy and maternity leave. There, every woman has a right to postpartum care. Our caregiver (similar to a postpartum doula!) came to our home a few hours a day for the first few days. She checked on my physical recovery and mental health, answered questions, assisted with breastfeeding and bathing our son, and even provided my husband and me a guilt-free nap!

    When my daughter was born in Wisconsin a couple years later, the difference in postnatal support was immediately noticeable. My own experience, along with countless stories from new moms inspired the creation of Popins.

    I believe that people want to be the best version of themselves at work and at home, for themselves, their colleagues, and their loved ones. I am excited to help you and your family thrive.

    Managing our time well is something most moms struggle with. We're always trying to find a better routine, feel more productive and efficient... but we usually fall short of our expectations for ourselves and our family. We build up a lot of pressure on ourselves over this idea of "time management". But our guest today has a different perspective on this skill with some practical strategies to transform your routines.

    My favorite is "clean your plate time" and the endless possibilities of structuring a routine for your day with these task anchored phrases.

    Getting our kids to do just the basics is often a battle of the wills. Simply asking to brush teeth, clean their room, get dressed, or pickup after themselves is met with massive meltdowns and fights. It's exhausting and how we end up doing to much as moms honestly, because we just don't have the energy to deal with it.

    Well today I'm sharing 4 tips on how to better handle the everyday asks to our children. There's one common theme that we need to unlock to find what works that I will reveal at the end. As well as the one key factor that our kids get from completing tasks that you may be preventing and not realize it... and they don't either.

    So listen in and please share your thoughts with me through Instagram or right here in a review. I can't wait to hear what you are going to try or what you have found works well for you. Help us moms out with your winning techniques!
